Thanks for your request. Agreed, we look for the same type of anime, judging by your list.

Just saying:
- Preferring J-pop doesn't mean I have to love Yoasobi or Radwimps
- Preferring Japanese food doesn't mean I have to love Sushi or Ramen
- Preferring Japanese culture doesn't mean I have to give a shit about Nyotaimori

It's indeed I love philosophical and deep Anime but that doesn't mean I only care about that aspect. Story, characters, narration, animation, pacing, they are actually the crucial factors I consider when judging an Anime.

Kaiba's first half actually is strong tho. Dark elements, subtle twists, deep themes getting explored in fascinating ways. I have my eyes bawled out on Chroniko and Vanilla episodes, especially when the Tree song melody starts kicking in. But sadly, this Anime doesn't keep its consistency towards the end. Everything post ep 8 is completely messy to me and the final ep is pure mediocre, like the author doesn't know to wrap things up after all the buildup in the previous eps.

Hope my answer satisfies your concern.

As someone who was looking for something similar to Oyasumi Punpun and found your comment on Subarashii Sekai, I just wanted to say, you're right. Weak, shallow, not much to show for it, you could say that about punpun too, but for me it did a great job of establishing that simple, objective and relatable nihilism. Your review made me lose the desire to read this work in question. However, it is worth defending that "teenagers looking at the sky philosophizing" is a very small narrative problem compared to other works, every mangaka has its idiocies which are inconceivable in the real world, like, kasuga takao and shinji are unacceptable to me.

colorful anime you say?

Cause I hate dropping an anime unless it was absolutely garbage :) and 5 isn’t a bad rating it’s just a pretty average anime that I’ll never watch again. That's it

Glad you agree with my Hibari/Urusei recommendation!

Yes. I do. In fact I'm way busier than I was 5 years ago + the commute is longer. In the early stages, it was part-time, then full-time for several years and then unemployment which peaked watching period then I was able to get hired again which this job covered several more years

100 days watching casually 16 years. Then 6+ years of watching the rest. Part of that drive is motivation and setting goals and then being obsessed with reaching those goals. Also essentially it became almost all my free time during half of that span.

I WANT MUMMY 4

Great Subarashii Sekai review, I feel the same about the author and his type of writing after reading Oyasumi Punpun
